Brigitte ou le chien qui aboyait à ma place
Jean-François Raynaud
2000 - 82 min - Digital vidéo - Couleur - France

This movie gives evidence to the story which unites Brigitte and Bernard. Brigitte is 35 years-old, she is a painters, she is autistic. Bernard is her legal guardian today, but, for twenty-seven years long, now, he takes care about her with such love a father, and maybe more. The victories won against illness are fragile, making harder the incessant fight. Some paintings of Brigitte are symbolic about particular events, they are like lighthouses, which mark out those years. They tell us their story.
